If you refuse this assignment, I will see to it you go to the mine pits as a slave for the rest of your short lives.”     He gets up, leaving the crystal behind on the table, and leaves.  You have little doubt the elven bastatch will do as he threatens.Questions or actions before he actually leaves?</blockquote>
